Enactus Employee Reviews

Engaging student organization that shows students how they can make a difference

club member (Current Employee), Ramapo College – May 21, 2014

The organization's focus is to create opportunities though entrepreneurial actions. For example, the goal of the sustainability project is to make students on campus aware of their impact on the environment.We sold reusable water bottles and spoke to the school administration to install hydration stations on campus.These hydration stations waste less water than traditional water fountains.

It is a very good program to get involved in because we can make such a great impact on many peoples lives. Being able to work with people who have so great ideas and making them a reality it worth it.

in Enactus we would occasionally meet as class to discuss and plan events which would fun our organization. i learned time management skills which i think helped me better organize my school work. apart from time management i learned valuable communication and promptness skills i would have to interact with other student to discuss how to make our fundraising successful and efficient. my peers were amazing it was all business major students who collectively worked towards a goal. The hardest part was learning to break up your time between school work and group work. the most enjoyable part was connecting with other students who are striving to be in the same career field as me or a similar one.

ENACTUS is a global non-profit organization which aims to help people in need and work for the social welfare by entrepreneurship actions.

Enactus is a relatively young marketing opportunity that is directly affiliated with the Immaculata University Business Department. Through Enactus, I was able to learn first-hand, real world business and in real time. Each member of our team had to step forward and use skills only previously learned in class as well as their own instinct in the workplace. Our team developed marketing strategies for the selling and distribution of HumanKind Water. HKW is a brand of water that gives back 100% of its proceeds to the building and maintaining of water filtration devices to be used in indigenous areas throughout Central Africa. You can find HumandKind Water in select Walmart stores today.

I have gained leadership experience as the Vice President of USC Enactus (formerly SIFE). I organized fundraising events and team building activities for members. As one of the executive board members, I learned that the best way to unite people is to care for them, plan events at their convenience, and gently encourage an open-minded persona. Besides supervising all the projects our members worked on, I was the project leader of Green Project. We met weekly to discuss and evaluate our strategies, and we cooperated well as a team to effectively get the tasks done. We were able to give back to the community by teaching elementary students environmental sustainability and financial literacy.

It's an incredible team with invaluable executives, officers, and members. I've accomplished so much in my time with Enactus - Missouri State University. I've assisted in business development, marketing campaigns, recruiting efforts, and much more. This organization has given me so many great experiences and taught me very much in a short amount of time.

Enactus is an international non-profit organization that works with leaders in business and higher education to mobilize university students to make a difference in their communities while developing the skills to become socially responsible business leaders. Participating students form teams on their university campuses and apply business concepts to develop outreach projects that improve the quality of life and standard of living for people in need.

Cons: lack of transparency from leadership, lack of advancement and support for employees

Obtained tremendous amounts of experience that can be applicable for many different positions in many different industries. Primarily sales, account management, customer relationship management, regional representative, event management

Being president of Enactus (formally SIFE) was one of the best experiences in my life. It was an experience that helped build me into the leader that I am today. I had to learn how to work alongside of others in all types of conditions. I gained a great perspective on how to read peoples characters and that helped out a lot. I had to learn their different skills and talents and place them where I thought they would best fit for the organization. Passion, hard work and dedication was something that I stood by for running this organization and it was my stepping stool that help me succeed.

Pros: this organization helps you network with many different employers

Cons: you will not get paid for the amount of work you put into the ocmpany

Working at Enterprise-rent-a-car one of the world’s largest corporations keeps me really busy. I may come into work at 6am to open up the branch. I make sure all the work areas are clean, contracts are ready to be put out and all the cars are clean and nothing is missing. By this time it is 730am and we are ready to open. I make sure our corporate customers are taken care of then I help the random – more... people that come in to rent car and return cars all throughout the day. During this time I am making sure customer are returning their cars when they say they are, I have to make sure that all the vehicles are up to date on their oil changes. I keep track of our corporate accounts and make sure they are paying their monthly balance and ensuring that each customer is completely satisfied. I learned how to control frustrating conversations with customers and work as a team through frustrating situations. The hardest part about the job is being able to multiple things at once, there could be so much going on and you must make sure you do not forget to do the many things that need to be done. The most enjoyable part of the job is the fact that you are actually managing a successful business and you have all the tools you need to be successful. You’re branches success depend on the work of your team. – less
